One Guy's Opinion
by OneGuysOpinion on 2009-11-27Rexall Place - EdmontonThis concert was mediocre at best. Attendance was poor at the start. Default opened and seemed frustrated about the crowd as well as the blown speaker on stage. They only played about 5 songs and split. The Used had unused energy and spent it revving up the crowd. Although I had never even heard of them, I was thoroughly entertained. The lead singer is truly an entertainer of astronomical proportions. Three Days Grace was full of spirit. Even in the midst of a family emergency they still managed to pull off a most excellent performance. The reasons that I only gave this show 3 stars was between every act it took almost 30 minutes to rearrange the stage. To fans this seemed to look fairly disorganized. The sound quality was not the best. I have been going to concerts at Rexall Place for my whole life and every time I have left there deafened for several days. I hate to say it but I think that I played Three Days Grace louder in the truck on the way to the show. All in all I wouldn't recommend this show to others, not because of the artists or their music, but only based on technicalities. Thank you Default, The Used and Three Days Grace for performing in Alberta. Keep it up guys.
